As far as the GT350 goes, I drove my buddy's to said cars and coffee and did not like it. Power comes on way late and it was work to keep it tracking straight.
Just my opinion though.

Nice Charger!
Exactly. The car felt torqueless and was only fun after 7500RPM. I also wasn't a fan of the stock exhaust. Sounded very tinny to me until same RPM. I was on GYSC3R tires, so grip was good... But just driving the car, in general, seem like a lot of work. The supra seems a lot easier to manage in all aspects. I would imagine a lot of that has to do with the weight.

Very well said. EVs are definitely the future, but contingent on massive power grid overhauls. If the government had an ounce of sense, they'd be pouring money into Nuclear and a grid that can sustain full EV before enacting bans on gas cars.

Also agree that EV resale will tank around the 10 year mark for the same reason no one buys an old iPhone. Degraded battery and outdated tech.
here in NorCal during really hot days when everybody got their AC on, they tell ppl not to charge their EV lol

One of my favs as well. There’s one that goes to my same gym. Can’t wait to meet the guy and ask him more about it ?

Can‘t find that photo right now but here’s one in Miami. Something about that one that makes my head turn every damn time!

Should only be 2 weeks to flatten/slow the (EV) curve - They’ll have the problem solved in no time ?

What a beauty ?

For me personally it's extremely hard to find a car I like aesthetically more than the Supra, except this Aston.

When I see one, it literally feels a bit like a Supra that's bigger, faster, more premium, more classy, louder, so essentially an upgrade from Supra in all aspects, hence why I'd really like one!
Such simple yet stunning lines and curves from all angles, the very wide long bonnet is to die for ?

Finally found the pic I was talking about yesterday. I think I like this silver the best. I can keep her really purdy, garaged and ready to go for you every time you travel to your fav FL vacation spot ?️

My goodness, that spec is so clean with the tint, thanks for sharing ??? the Supra was my greatest car purchase thus far, seeing this Aston motivates me to work harder and earn more to maybe one day step up into a real supercar ?

Yeah, I had to back off while getting some pics - not to get too much drool/dribble on that amazing ride. She’s definitely the top supermodel of cars in my book. Bar none ?

It looks like the 4 cylinder Emira is getting mixed reviews:

https://www.pistonheads.com/news/ph-driven/2023-lotus-emira-i4-first-edition-ph-review/47513
https://www.evo.co.uk/lotus/emira/2...-i4-review-the-final-combustion-engined-lotus
https://www.topgear.com/car-reviews/lotus/20-360-first-edition-2dr-dct/first-drive

It's a shame they de-tuned the engine, I had it in my A45s and thought it was ok, if hamstrung by the weight of the hatch, so in a lighter car it should have been great. However I think it was already suffering heat issues in the hatch, so it was detuned to cope with that in the Lotus.

Obviously the big kicker is the price. Since it's announcement it's gone from a £65k to a £81+kcar

I don't even have my Supra yet, but as an accountant I plan everything out including car purchases. I have a car bucket list and the next thing that I think will be tackled is either muscle car (which would mean Mustang as there aren't any other new ones left) or grand tourer (Jag F-Type, Lexus LC500, Porsche 911 if spec'd right, etc).

My every day car (currently Civic Si) will likely be another manual compact sporty car of some sort, maybe another Si, if the GTI is still ICE & Manual, Type R/S, etc.

As unpopular as it is I think the new M2. I agree with the general consensus that the car in stock form is hideous and wouldn't mind a slight refresh/redesign. That being said, some tasteful mods really make the car start to pop for me. Guess it's the old, "BMW effect".

The Supra is considered my first ever sport car. I wanted something that was in working shape and also a good daily. Once I finish paying off the Supra I really want a Dc2 Integra. I know its no new car, but I always wanted to build a car from the ground up. I always wanted one growing up but everywhere in my area they were either stolen or the engine was in rough shape.

At my dealer here in Germany for final preparation before I take it on. New M2. Dealers I hear about in the US have long waits etc. Not sounding unpopular lol - :) Go test one! :)
